How to interrupt popen()?
Hello, I have a question: how to interrupt a command execution given in popen()? It seems that I could use kill(pid), but how can I find out the pid of the command execution in popen()? Are they any methods for this? Thanks! Mack -

How to process file in parallel in a script?

Files suddenly zeroed!?
Thanks for your hint. We did not see any messages like "NFS Server not Responding" or "RPC Timeout", because we noticed this error after our system was stopped due to the zero-sized executable files.

Files suddenly zeroed!?
Hello, Yesterday something strange happened on our system: Some executable files were suddenly zeroed! These files (together with other executable files) are mounted via NFS. We suppose this could be a human cause (perhaps unintended), is also an NFS problem possible? Hints are...- mackpei
